Hi,
I am following the solution for generating report :
In this as indicated the HTTP connector is replaced by the generate report connector.
We need to store the report in database, hence using the Write File process action. However, the dropdown for storage location is empty even after creating a new one (by clicking the magnifier). Can you please guide?

Hi Rucha,
The Write file to write files to a storage location such as Disk, Azure of AWS. The Write file is unnecessary for storing the Report data in your database. You can simple create a process procedure for the Generate report process action and save the Report data that was outputted by the process action. The Write file is not needed.

Hi Rucha,
The Generate report process action is a System flow action and cannot be run inside process flows for the Windows GUI; https://docs.thinkwisesoftware.com/docs/sf/process_flows_connectors#generate-report. You'll have to create a System flow that Generates reports and send them via the SMTP connector.
The usage of variables is good but the Generate report cannot be used with the Windows GUI.

Hi Mark,
We are using Linux server for this functionality , my colleague (thanks
so I guess this may be the reason the Report generate was not working for us even after using correct parameters.
